Boon is of English and Irish descent. He began playing rugby at Welwyn at the age of five and later represented Hertfordshire at county level.[2] As a sixth-form student at Bishop's Stortford College, he captained the school's rugby team.[3] During his studies for a bachelor's degree in accounting and financial management at Loughborough University, he also played for Loughborough Students under a university contract while part of the Saracens academy.[4]
Boon joined the Saracens junior academy as a teenager, and played for the U18s team in the Premiership Academy League, before graduating into the senior academy in 2018. He was part of the Saracens Storm squad that won the Premiership Rugby Shield in 2019, which included appearing in the 55–14 final triumph against Newcastle Falcons A.[1] The following season, he made his first-team debut, coming off the bench in at 36–20 Premiership victory over Gloucester in August 2020.[2] A month later, he scored his first Premiership try, helping Saracens to defeat Exeter Chiefs by 40–17.
In the 2021–22 season, Boon was primarily deployed in the Premiership Rugby Cup.[5] He also continued his development in Australia with a loan spell at Eastwood.[6] Ahead of the 2022–23 season, Boon was promoted into the Saracens first-team squad.[7]
Boon is qualified to represent England and Ireland.[5] As such, he has played for both the England U18s and the Ireland U18s during his youth career, having been noted as a line-out specialist due to his six-foot 10 inch frame.[1]
